This was my own name. State public utility commission websites are usually 
a good source of info on power transmission things. You can often find 
detailed filings for generation/transmission projects from which to get 
industry terminology.

I imagine there's a group of "tower-philes" or "pylon-philes" out there 
that has stuff on the web somewhere, too. The one that I found in England 
wasn't very precise, though.
